Just popping on to mention that I was watching QVC yesterday and because Mon is 25th there is a Christmas Day (and it's a BH so bonus). TV guide is here

Was disappointed with the Jane Asher range. Ended up buying an oven glove, a spatula and a cookbook!

Had a great idea for Christmas pressie from DD to other DD who's always cleaning her house but is also very glitzy and girlie. In Home Bargains they've got the metal caddies with 'Housekeeping' (or something similar) written on them for £6.99 (usually at least double that in other shops) - think they had them in cream and grey. Spend another few pounds on the fabulous pink and sparkly cleaning things in B&M (sparkly scouring pads, washing up brushes that look like glam girlies etc.), pink dusters and pink w/up gloves and wrap in cellophane with big pink bow. Ta-dah, pamper hamper for the house lol :j

Ramping up for Christmas now - bring on QVC on Monday and hope it's more Christmassy than their efforts in July

Morning all!

I've bought some cups from Sainsburys to make sweetie cups or to put cookies in. I'm feeling I might do cookies I'm going to try making and freezing the dough and see how that works out.

I'm just checking off the list of Christmas food and investigating what we might want for our Christmas eve buffet dinner.

Not much snacky stuff left to buy which is good.

Also just found these

Love and hugs
